Noteworthy how everyone who disagrees with you is being downvoted. I get the sense Nuclear proponents tend to get heavily invested in being the smartest people in the room, while also being heavily specialized in their own discipline and a bit dismissive of fields a project of that scale would touch.
A few key things just seem to consistently get overlooked in the pro-nuclear arguments - cost of capital probably being the one I understand best personally, but I suspect there are others that have a similar impact - and because this faction has so much invested in being right, they spend more time attacking people pointing out weaknesses in their argument than reflecting on whether they might have a point.
